Non-Invasive, Drug-Free Laser Therapy at Fairview Hospital for Animals

Veterinarian Dr. Shelly Stevens of Fairview Hospital for Animals in Decatur just announced that they have started providing laser therapy for pets. During laser treatment, the veterinarians rub a laser probe over the injured area. She says that laser therapy is a non-invasive, drug-free technique that relieves and accelerates healing of arthritis, soft tissue injuries, post-surgical wounds, skin conditions and others. According to Dr. Stevens, pets find the laser therapy enjoyable, and pet owners report that their pets seem more active and comfortable after treatment.

Random Raman Lasing Emission Holds Promise for High-Speed Wide-Field Microscopy

In modern microscope imaging techniques, lasers are used as light sources because they can deliver fast pulsed and extremely high-intensity radiation to a target, allowing for rapid image acquisition. However, traditional lasers come with a significant disadvantage in that they produce images with blurred speckle patterns — a visual artifact that arises because of a property of traditional lasers called "high spatial coherence." These speckles greatly reduce image quality in wide-field microscopy, a common technique for making broad swath images of the whole side of a cell or some other part of the microscopic world in order to understand its intricate inner workings.
